meteor-ditto v0.0.4

WIP METEOR-DITTO

I'm still working on it

This package contains an opinionated set of helpers to use with Redux on a Meteor application.

The name for this package comes from me playing too much Pokemon Go and this package's weakness being the duplication of data

Concept

Install

First install the package:

npm install --save meteor-ditto

Next setup the reducers.

import { mongo } from 'meteor-ditto';

const reducers = combineReducers({
  mongo,
  (your other reducers)
});

Finally, connect the collections:

import { connect as connectCollection } from 'meteor-ditto';

// Messages is an example of a Meteor collection
connectCollection(Messages, store)

Usage

Subscribing to publications

When you use SubscriptionComponent to compose your component, two functions will be sent through the props: subscribe and subscriptionReady. The first should be called inside a componentWillMount with the name of the publications and it's arguments, the same way you would call Meteor.subscribe(..). The second accepts the name of a publication and sees if it's ready or not.

import React, { Component, PropTypes } from 'react';
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import { SubscriptionComponent } from 'meteor-ditto';

class App extends Component {
  componentWillMount() {
    this.props.subscribe('messages', arg1, arg2);
  }

  render {
    return (
      <SomeComponent
        {...this.props}
        ready={this.subscriptionReady('messages')}
      />
    );
  }
}

App.propTypes = {
  subscribe: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
  subscriptionReady: PropTypes.func.isRequired,
};

export default connect(fn => fn)(SubscriptionComponent(App));
